The Environment

Montessori classrooms provide a specially crafted learning environment where children can respond to their natural tendency to work. Children have an innate passion for learning, and the Montessori classroom encourages this by giving them opportunities to engage in spontaneous, purposeful activities with the guidance of a trained adult. Through their work, the children develop concentration and joyful self-discipline. Within a framework of order, the children progress at their own pace and rhythm, according to their individual capabilities. Specific Montessori programmes are offered at the following levels:
  • Assistants to Infancy 0-3 years
  • Primary/Casa dei Bambini/Children’s House 3-6 years
  • Elementary 6-12 years
  • Adolescent 12-18 years
Each Montessori Program has its own unique environment that supports, encourages, and fosters intellectual curiosity, independence, and collaborative work.
